Oh I see so many of these. Dogs with pitch black noses, not a single spot of ticking or freckling to be seen, and glow-in-the-dark white whites--some with a blue or purple tint. Amazing how they bred those show dogs like that and yet all the pets from the same breeders have noses that go off in the winter, a bit of ticking here and there, and the typical pearly white coat it calls for in the standard instead of the bright blue white coat.
